: A gemologist said it was ivory, and it appears to have a
: signature. I understand this could be a recent copy. It's
: a carved skull & toad. I post a quick photo at:
: www.nyx.net/~wboas/netsuke.html. Would like to know more
: about the symbolism and if there is anyone known in the
: Denver area as an expert to have it examined.
: I was not aware of netsuke before this.
